Shop flooring stupid cheap

[gilber33]

The pictures aren't working for me. Are they for anyone else? 

Also, are these just for parking cars on? I assume with them being plastic you couldn't use a jack or jackstands on these?

You'd most likely have to use something under a jack/stand to protect the point loads from cracking the floor, i.e. piece of plywood or sheet metal.

@Jdesign I'm still in. I have to do some maths to see what I need and how big of a pile that will be for me to pickup, but around 500 tiles.

FYI for everyone, I talked to the rep for Wisconsin (Chase) from the company that makes these and they will sell small amounts of the ramp edges to anyone. They are $2/piece and are 2"x 9.8425" available in grey or black.

Would pulling into a garage and backing in and out turning the wheels on these cause them to shift or move at all? One of our garage stalls will eventually be a little tricky to get into and would require some maneuvering.

You can use jack stands, floor jacks, etc. they are strong.

Yes and no. typically these should have an underlayment, but I have then down with just concrete under them. you can turn on them just fine but obviously the bigger the area the less likely you will see shifting. 

** Note that my E36 has a welded diff and I tried turning on them with the rear tires near an edge of about 1200sqft and it just twisted a few tiles apart. I had to get out and snap them back together.**

@gilber33

you could always mechanically fasten trouble spots or tiles near edges. if you don't mind a hole or two in your floor, a modified truss head screw and a wedge anchor could work.

just call the 800 number and ask for the Wisconsin sales rep named Chase. That's how he suggested I call him back.  800-664-3865

UPDATE.

This is going faster than I expected. I sold about 3,000 SqFt already. That means I 'only' have about 15,000 SqFt left.

GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT!

For the most part, yes. 

9.8425" x 9.8425" x 3/4" (250mm x 250mm x 19mm)

They are metric. 

But I can give you a bunch extra, just get the rough area.
